The blog has suffered.

I am trying to maintain my sanitiy.

She also answers to Alexis… I know that now. Woops (in my defense.. I have another bride named Alexis right now. I knew her name was Alex.. I just called her Alexis.. annoying. I know)

Are they not the most gorgeous couple? That smile… Wow. They are super happy.

I am super sad. I am not shooting their wedding and that is horrible! They are getting married out of state.

If I have shot your wedding you know… I get close with my brides and grooms. I sure hope I can take their family pics in the future…

Best of luck to you guys.. I really really like you!

Have you guessed yet?

Its the guy. She is the focus. But its how he looks at her.

That is what makes the picture.

And what I love about it… is that its always just right.

I don’t have to train him on how to do it… ever.

He loves her. So he looks at her that way. And that is the picture.

This is Ryan. His sister is my wonderful good friend. He is my brother’s best friend.. and sorta like a little brother to me.

I am happy for him. And Bryndi is just right. So happy for them.

And I really really LOVE how he looks at her.

I took pictures of it today. And it was a blast!

I love how she has embraced what is so important to him.

And he even took off his cowboy hat for a few pictures.

They must be in L.O.V.E.

I took these a few weeks ago. And thought they would be the perfect pictures to try out the new blog boards I bought today.. so cute huh? 

]]> http://www.mariawoodphotography.com/2012/02/22/abby-girl/feed/ 0 Alexis and Ben http://www.mariawoodphotography.com/2012/02/21/alexis-and-ben/ http://www.mariawoodphotography.com/2012/02/21/alexis-and-ben/#comments Tue, 21 Feb 2012 06:32:34 +0000 admin http://www.mariawoodphotography.com/?p=454 So have I mentioned lately how much I love what I do?

I take care of a beautiful little girl.

Pick out her clothes

Do her hair.

Take her carpool.

Walk her to class.

Get her a snack.

Look through her school bag at all her work from the day.

Do homework with her.

Color.

Cuddle.

Host play dates.

You get the picture…

And then a couple times a week. In the afternoon. For an hour or two…. I get to sneak out and take gorgeous pictures of a totally in love couple.

And then I come home.

It really is the best life.

I love what I do.

Enjoy.

Not sure that they were prepared for how cold this was going to be… being from California. But they were troopers.. and in reality it could have been a ton worse!

The boys did well for a while. And then they fell apart. But we got great pictures anyway! LOVE them all!

I am not worried about it. http://www.mariawoodphotography.com/2012/02/14/call-me-obsessed-i-am-not-worried-about-it/ http://www.mariawoodphotography.com/2012/02/14/call-me-obsessed-i-am-not-worried-about-it/#comments Tue, 14 Feb 2012 23:29:11 +0000 admin http://www.mariawoodphotography.com/?p=433 This girl.. I enjoy her so much.

I LOVE  Her constant chatter.

Constant is not an exaggeration.

I love her kindness.

I love her freckles.

I love how darn photogenic she is. 

I love that she still lets me pick out her clothes.

I love her imagination.

I love that she is what makes me a mother.

And I LOVE that about me.

I absolutely adore her daddy beyond words.

There is no better man on the planet. Of that I am certain.

Why I am blessed with both of them… I am not sure. Sometimes it scares me because they are both too perfect…

Our Lives are just too wonderful.

Blissfully Happy…

Its a bit scary to me.

But I am going to do all I can to enjoy every second.

PS… I was just cuddling with Abby and I asked her if she is going to take care of me when I am old.. and she said she will think about it. hmmm that stinks. I love her anyway.

It was a little strange to be flying out of town never having met this couple.. and really hardly talking to them! But we clicked right away and I love the images we got! I had an awesome time… Their friends and family made me feel right at home!
